I just love the "new" look of black and white together and it seems as every store you look in, there it is. I have seen; black and white polk-a-dot patterns, black and white stripe patterns, black and white zebra patterns, black and white geometric patterns, etc. This year I thought I'd go a little wild (no pun intended) for my Mother's Day outfit and get a black and white zebra print jacket. Of course I already had a black skirt to wear with it, but now was the question...what other color should I wear with it??? I decided to go with a bright yellow : ) I thought a simple tank to go under the jacket would be easy to find, but not true. I looked and looked for simple, yellow tank. I finally found one at TJ Maxx that would fit into my budget. Next on my list was a yellow purse or shoes to go with this outfit. I did find a purse, but since it was $250, I thought I'd better not, HA! As Kallee and I shopped, we looked in every store I could think of, for a purse or shoes within in a reasonable amount. I finally ran into Charlotte Russe, a store I NEVER go into (it just isn't a friendly store to old Moms : ), but at last...I found the yellow shoes I was looking for. Actually I should say, Kallee found them. She ran right to them and said "here ya go Mommy, just what you wanted"! She was right, but I forgot to mention to her that I'm half way to being REALLY old and that I don't do high, high heels, any more so... Since they were also in my budget and were the only ones I could find, I figured WHY NOT?!?! I now am the proud owner of a pair of sassy, bright yellow, 3" heels! : ) Kallee was so proud of them, she couldn't wait till the boys and Daddy got home to show them the shoes she had picked out for me. I told her while leaving the store, "I will probably fall and break my neck wearing these silly things", and she couldn't figure out what I meant. I explained it to her and she just giggled : ) I love that baby girl of mine, she's got a great sense of style already!
